l know this question has been posted before but was talking about this recently and l heard quite a few other rumours as what has already been mentioned of what vRS means.

Any offers

version Rally Sport.

vehicular Rusted Skip.. Lol.
(sorry, they're good cars now..) :)

There r several definitions of what the 'v' means in the Skoda vRS range

Version & Volkswagen r the most popular guesses.

But l have a Fabia vRS & looked on the the Briskoda site.

Apparently Skoda in their early years named one of their cars RS because of its racing pedigree.

Now people think Ford first came out with this logo. When Ford got to hear that Skoda was going to badge their cars RS they took Skoda to court!

Apparently the judge (or whatever) looked into Skodas past racing pedigree & history & indeed did rule in favour in Skoda using the RS logo.

But to just rubs Fords nose in it they put a v in front of the RS.
The 'v' stands for victory. But not for their racing victories but for the victory over Ford in the court case.

If u lose a court case ( l think) in the UK then u have to pay the winning parties legal & court costs. Just imagine how much this amounted to?

P.S., One of the rumours of the 'v' is Skoda owners sticking up their fingers to Ford (Nice one eh!)
